      😀 Hey everyone!

      Actually saved my first character! Thank you so very much and sorry for the mixup with this. very new to Epic…

      I think that what confused me is the fact that it seems to switch back to the demo during the save process.

      But thanks everybody so far!
      Dylan 😀

        :dry: Hey everyone!

        Still have problems saving my work on Epic. Are we supposed to be able to save work with the free version or not??

        Here is what happens:

        I should be able to go to “Settings” and go through the save process. But instead of doing that it loads the demo that I created with the tutorial…

        What do I do here??

        Sorry for doing this again!
        Thanks!

          :dry: Hey everybody!

          Still having problems saving my work. Even with a brand new pack. When I click settings it still takes me back to the demo page. Basically it seems like the “save” option isn’t working right. Any thoughts??

          Get back to me on this please,
          Thanks so much!

            Sade-

            Could be an issue of not having enough content yet. But basically the only file that will save is the demo from the tutorial. Have to wait on a screenshot. The screenshot program on my computer is acting up.

            Thanks!
            Dylan 🙂

              :dry: Hey there Bandy-

              I get that. The “what the bleep” is because I seem to only get the “save” option when I switch the tutorial demo. So I’m confused.

              Get back to me please,
              Thankd!

              PS: Bandy? Since you are an admin could you do me a favor?? Pleas find out if it would be ok for me to write my posts in color. Asking because I have a sight impairment… Thanks! :dry:

                🙂 Heya Bandy!

                Ok. The issue though is this:

                Whenever I hit “Settings” it returns to the image that I made with the tutorial. And I’m sitting there going “what the bleep?”…

                Get back to me please,
                Thankyou!

                  :unsure: Hey there!

                  This is the character that I was trying to save:

                  I had to create a jpg screenshot to save it. When I go to Settings I get this:

                  Does anyone know what is going on??

                  Get back to me,
                  Thank you!

                    🙂 Hey there Kelemelan!

                    Hmmm…ok. 😉 Do you guys have a male either “Sailor” or “Pirate” pack??

                    Btw. A few details about both projects and the reason for some of the “out of place” characters…

                    “The Wandering Musician” is actually a project {first an illustrated first person novel that is a mix of narrative and singing and then an animated film} about the life of Jim Morrison {of the Doors}. It spans from spring of 1965 and November 11, 1968. I’m not giving up too much detail. Except that mixed in with the 1960s scenes {in addition to scenes from the late 1940s to 50s} are scenes involving ships and sailors from the 1700s…

                    The other project, called “Friends” is an animated film having to do with the English rock group Led Zeppelin. It begins in early 1969 and ends in 1970 with their performance at the Albert Hall. The majority of “Friends” takes place in London. And there are some scenes from the Dark Ages and Middle Ages mixed in. So some of the period/fantasy packs will probably work. You did it again! Thanks!

                    Writing “The Wandering Musician” right now. And beginning research for “Friends”…

                    Get back to me on this,
                    Thanks!

                      :cheer: Hey Sade-

                      This is either for you and they artists or one of the technical wizards who work on fixing bugs with the program…

                      We have got to have the ability to create black hair.

                      When I get into school at Full Sail U please let me show the instructors some of the characters that I end up creating and see if they make 3D versions. Asking mainly because I have been having issues with the software that I have been using. And…well… let’s face it. Your work is the best I’ve seen yet!

                      Thanks!

                          :cheer: Hey Sade and Kalemelan!

                          Thanks! Btw. Can’t do anything yet re purchasing packs {no bank card yet!} Please tell me that the “Modern Male” pack has shoulder-length hair. For female please make longer hair? Like just below the breast line?

                          Sade? I’m serious when I say that your work is top notch! Keep it coming!

                          Btw. For “TWM” we need a couple of “unusual” character presets maybe. Unusual in that we are setting this in the 1960s. So these characters might look out of place. They are three sailors from the 1700s. Here they are:

                          CHRISTIAN.png HEYWWOD.png HALLETT.png

                          They aren’t pirates. But if we need a “Pirate” pack to create them then that’s fine.

                          These were made with Plotagon too.

                          Using Plotagon for the book illustrations and considering Epic for the film’s character creation.

                          Oh yaa! Any way to show characters moving, talking or seated? That’s prbly for both tech people and artists…

                          Get back to me,
                          Thanks!

                            :cheer: : Hey everyone!

                            A ps to this. I found a modern base male character. Very cool! Here is the thing though. As you can probably tell from the images in my main post the protagonist in my film is a young white male with long brown hair and blue eyes. I haven’t seen the modern male pack yet. Will get it next month along with the modern female pack. What I need specifically is a long modern male hairstyle that is actually neat and looks clean literally. Either that or need to be able to use one of the medieval male hairstyles for modern characters.

                            Get back to me on this please,
                            Thankyou!

                              Basically every time I try to run the program i will go along in the tutorial and there are different places where this happens. What I mean by “freezing”… my cursor will move. But no indication of reaction on the tutorial. Btw. They also need to make it possible to use the character generator in window mode! :unsure:
